Default new rims/tires-mudflaps installed

I am not very fond of the 20" laramie wheels, I would like to put 17" rims that are black and keep them the same overall size so I would increase my tow rating as if I had the stock 17s.

First off has anyone put black rims on a black laramie? I would like to see pics and next can anyone recommend a rim/tire combo? I am new to trucks and dont know much about truck wheels and tires. also is there any value to the stock rim/tire set up, or does anyone want to buy it in the PNW?

last but not least I installed the husky mud flaps. they are really nice, and fit perfectly. I am impressed as to how detailed husky is, even throwing in the paint protectors. The rears are a little tricky to get on without taking off the wheels but I have a drill bit that is flexible so it made it a little easier.

How about some pics of the flaps, I am thinking about getting a set. I don't have a laramie, but my truck is 2-tone and I love my black wheels. They are 17s with 285/75/17 Nitto Terra Grapplers. I got $800 out of my old tires and 17" wheels.
